Hi Guys!
Simple question: I'm starting a grow in a small box (2' deep X 3'long X 5' high) and purchased a Mars Hydro 300 watt light. After doing some reading, I found the manufacturer states that the light covers 1.5'X1.5' footprint during flowering. Since my box is 3'X2', I decided to buy a second light so that my girls can get good coverage, but I'm seeing other people use a single 300W light with great results on multiple plants... so here's the question, was I out of my mind for grabbing two of these lamps or will the extra 300W benefit me enough to justify the expense?
I wrote a longer version of my grow closet plan here for those who want to get in-depth: http://rollitup.org/t/autoflower-grow-under-300-watt-mars-leds.922737/
